Abstract

Community psychology, which originated from the United States, has made significant progress in many countries over the past 50 years, but it is still an unfamiliar field in Korea. The purpose of this paper is to introduce the core concepts of community psychology and to increase the understanding of community psychology and highlight its practicality and importance. This paper introduces the core concepts of community psychology, including a shift in perspective, first-order and second-order change, ecological level of analysis, and action. It also considers how these core concepts can be utilized and which direction they can provide for the Korean society. Ultimately, the goal is to promote public awareness of community psychology, expand the scope of psychology in Korea, and make a positive contribution to solve social issues in the Koream society.

미국에서 시작된 공동체심리학은 지난 50여년 동안 미국을 비롯한 다른 나라에서 많은 발전을 이루었지만, 아직까지 한국에서는 낯선 학문 분야이다. 본 논문은 공동체심리학의 기본 개념을 중심으로 공동체심리학에 대한 이해를 높이며 공동체심리학의 중요성과 실용성을 피력하고자 하는 목적을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 공동체심리학의 기본 개념 중 관점의 전환, 1차변화와 2차변화, 생태학적 관점과 분석 수준, 그리고 실천행동에 관한 내용을 소개함으로써 공동체심리학에 대한 이해를 돕고자 하였다. 더불어 이러한 기본 개념이 한국사회에서 어떻게 활용되고 어떤 방향을 제시할 수 있을지를 고민해 보았다. 궁극적으로 공동체심리학에 대한 대중적 인식을 도모하고, 이를 통해 심리학이 활용될 수 있는 영역을 넓히며, 현 한국사회의 문제를 해결하는데 이 분야가 긍정적인 기여를 할 수 있기를 기대한다.
